HEN Mr. Bowser came up 
from the office the other 
evening he had an air about 
him that puzzled Mrs. Bow- 

He was quiet and subdued and 
yet vot sorrowful, He was dignified 
and yet pleasent. Me bad found the 
gute open, but be did not mention the 
fact. He had voticed an old can on 
the steps, where some boy had thrown 
it, but be did vot Jump up and down 
and take on about It, 

At the dinner table he praised the 
coffee and steak and suggested to Mrs. 
Bowser (hat the cook’s wares be rats-

fu progress and talked loudiy and tt: | 
pudently to the cook at the door, Mra. | 
Bowser expected to see a rush on Mr

hever been In agreement, and he was 
therefore knocked out when Mr. Bow-

The druggist was 100 dumfounded , 


tu reply, and Mr, Bowser went on At 


the next corner be slipped and jostied |

takos me for a duchess,” said the wom- 
an to berself as Mr, Bowser passed on, 
“but he's kind hearted and a gentle- 
man, and | won't burt bis feelings by 
calling him back and explaining that I 


do family wash by the dozen and don't 
use uny acid to loosen up the dirt.” 


Cheering the Copper, 

On the corner was a policeman. Ho 
had a downcast look, and Mr, Bowser | 
walked up to bim and said: | 

“IT think there are enough of us| 
nround bere to get you promoted to 
roundsman,.” - 

“But—but"— 

“And then to a sergeantey. We bare | 
bad our eyes on you for some time, and 
we like the way you do your duty.” 

“But six weeks ago, because I had) 
to jerk a drunk around ratber lively, 
you threatened to have me bounced.” 

“Just my limpulsive way, you know. | 
Didn't mean a thing by it. Lope to} 
see you captain in a sear from now. } 
Continue right on, my good friend.” | 

The next was the dafryman. He had) 
been told that Mr. Bowser had charg | 
ed him with selling sour milk and oth- 
er grave things, and his jaw was set | 
and he was ready for a row when |} 
there came an extended band and the! 
words: } 

“Gocd evening, Brown ~§ Glad to see

day that you were never 80. prosper: |

“But you said I sold sour milk for

“Pooh, man, ‘pooh. Little joke of 
mine. Don't mind it. Flope to see you | 
alderman of the ward next spring.” 

Not a Case For an M. D, ~ 

When Mr. Bowser got back home he 
was more smiling and good natured 
than ever. As he sat with the cat in! 
his lap and stroked her back and called 
her fond names Mrs, Rowser wus try- 
ing to figure things out. She suggest- 


| ed ginger tea, but Mr. Bowser laughed.

wich and a dime tu cash were sept out 
to the trump. 

“You will have to order coal In the 
Morning.” said Mrs. Bowser after a 
bit. eS aes 

“Very well, my dear.” 

No springing up aud shouting that 
ehe had been selling the cos! out of 
Fpite—no charges that it bad been 
poked down ratholes in the cellar. 

“During the rain today I saw that 
the kitchen roof leaked.” 

“I will have a man up here tomor- 
row.” 

No roaring and shouting. No de- 
claring that Mrs. Bowser had been 
galloping around on the roof tn order 
to do all the dawige possible. Not a | 
word about being on the road to the 
poorhouse, 

“In cleaning house today the cook 
somehow broke a rocker off a chair.” 

“It Lad been loose for a long time,” 
a@ald Bowser. 

Mrs. Bowser was perturbed. That 
wasn't the way for Mr. Bowser to act. 
He was a lion instend of a lamb, Had 
he beard of the dexth of a relutive? 
Tiod some doctor told tim that both 
lungs were gone? Had be fost a lot | 
of money? 


On a Mission of Peace. 

Mr. Bowser usually drops bis napkin 
on the floor and shoves his chair back 
with a scrape when a menl ts finished, 
but on this ocension the napkin was 
rolled and the chuir geutly bandled as 
he quietly said: 

“I am going out for a little while

of much use, but when it is crossed 
with a larger breed the result is 2 
strong, Vigorous pony that not only 
can furnish fun for the children, but 
can do enough work to more than pay 
for its board and care. Unlike the lar- 
ger work animals, a pony can be used 
for light tasks when it {s a yearling 
and thus become profitable when very 
young. ; 

A pony requires very ttle feed. One 
that wos pastured on a medium sized 
Inwn had all it could do to keep the 
grass trimmed, If the animal is put 
out to browse in fence corners or along | 
the road he will forage for himself ua- 
til late In the fall and will require very 
little feed even when shut up in bad 
weather. If there is no room in the

There is great danger in overfeeding, | 
yet the fatthful Httle animal should 
not be. starved. Tontes ut times iike 
chopped apples or carrots and other 
vegetables, and these will*help to keep 
them in fine condition. It is seldom 
mecessary to feed grain to a pony. 

We have a little wagon, bought at a! 
sale for almost nothing, to which the 
pony is hitebed nearly every day tn 
busy seasons, and the children thus) 
take a hand In the work, says a writer 
in Country Gentleman, They could 
not manage the work horses, for these 
are heavy and headstrong, but the 
pony is fun for them. It fs a com- 
mou sight to see them in the pony cart 


| going after walnuts or boards or to the 


truck patch for potatoes, corn, toiwna- 


}-toes.ormelons and on 2 thousand and) 


one other errands wat are known only 
to farmers. | 
It is also profilable to raise a pony 
colt each year, for, considering the cost | 
of keeping them, the little animals sell | 
almost as well as horses. A yearling | 
pony mare brought $00 at our sale, and 
the entire cost of ralsing and keeping 
her did not exceed $20. Though no 


| busy farmer wants to give his entire| 


time to the pony business, yet a pony 
little sum and one that represents very | 
little labor. Gentle ponies, well broken | 
to the saddle and the cart, often sell ; 
for as tuch ns $130 to $150, but 

There is not} 
an animal ou the farm which, to say 

nothing of the delight that it gives to | 
the children, will bring targer returns | 
year after year and cause so litle!

that the care of the hands is n neces- 
sity. “Many” perdons .think= that the

Economy of Concrete Bridges. 

In the case of a steel bridge the la- 
bor and material are seldom found fo 
the locality In which the bridge is 
built, whereas in the construction of 
a concrete bridge most of the labor 
and materials may be obtained at the 
site, and the greater part of the money 
expended for the bridge remaingin the 
community. This Is nside from the 
cust of maintenance and appropriate 
Gesign, which are entirely in favor of 
concrete. It would be more econom- 
feal under certain circumstances to 
pay from one and a half to two times 
as much in first cost for a concrete 
bridge as one’ of steel. There is good 
reason to believe that this represents 


the situation as ft pertains to the aver- 
age bridge instead of being the exeep- 
fion. Tlow vastly more economical to 
use conerete where the cost does not 
exceed steel, which has frequently

CHAPTER vit" 
A Leaf From the Past 


Aaron Phillips was ° standing up 
with something like . smile upon his 
face. He was a short, slim person, 
“swarthy and foreign looking, exeept 
for the pair of keen blue eyes which 
bespoke the Anglo-Saxon in his blood. 
From the roots of his hair across to 
his temple, was a long angry red fur- 
row which looked like a comparative- 
y fresh-healed wound. As to the rest, 

© was fairly well dressed, with that 
indescribable air of nattiness which 
usually belongs to those who are of 
the genus “horsey.” 

“Glad to meet you, Mr. Fielden,” he 
grinned. 

“I shall be obliged if you won't use 
that name here,” Harry replied. “For 
the present my name is Field, and I 
Want you not to forget it. But how 
did you manage to get home again 1 
thought you were dead.” 

Phillips indicated the sear on his 
foreead. 

“It was a near thing, Mr. Fielden, T 
beg pardon, Field. It wasn’t the fault 
of those scoundrels, I can tell you. 
They left me for dead, and if I hadn’t 
been picked up by some of the boys 
I should have died of starvation in 
the veldt. As it was, I had a close 
shave, and so did Copley and Foster 
for the matter of that. Our friends 
chased them all across the Colony. and 
how they managed to escape is a mys- 
tery to me. Still, perhaps, it is as 
well. There are more ways than one 
of taking revenge.” 

The little man’s eyes gleamed as he 
spoke. He glanced meaningly at 
Fielden and jingled a few coppers in 
his pocket. 

“Make them pay for it, you mean,” 
Fielden smiled. 

“That's it, sir, you’ve got it first 
time. Now, as you know perfectly well, 
there are a dozen or more people out 
yonder who would give a round sum 
to have Copley on the end of the rope, 
or within reach of a revolver shot. 
They are not the sort to give informa- 
tion to the police, because that is not 
the way we used to do things. Still, if 
I like to open my mouth widely en- 
ough I could make it deuced hot for 
Copley & Co. I could have them con- 
veyed to Cape Town, and it wouldn’t 
take me long to find evidence enough 
to give those two chaps ten years on 
the Breakwater. Yes, sit, Id have 

“tore it/too, but theré’s a befler way 
than that. It took me the pest part 
of a year or more to scrape enough 
money together to pay my passaye 
home. I had heard some queer stori2s 
about Copley, and I wanted to find 
out if they were true. What do I see 
when I reach London? Why, Copley 
with a set of offices in the city—Cop- 
ley with a set of rooms at a palatial 
hotel—Copley with a place in the 
country and a string of race-horses. 
Oh, I tell you Mr. Fielden—Field, I 
mean—I rubbed my hands when I 
heard of it. Thinks I to myself, ‘This 
is a better game than handing Copley 
over to the South African Police.’ I 
don’t quite know yet how Copley has 
managed it, but here he is ruffling it 
with the best, spending money like 
water, and now they tell me he is go- 
ing to marry the daughter of a baron- 
et in these parts.” 

Fielden’s face flushed angrily. He 
winced at this home thrust on Phil- 
lip’s part. So already people were 
coupling May Haredale’s name with 
Copley. It had not occurred to him 
that things had gone as far as that, 
But, however, Phillips could not be 
expected to know this. He was mere- 
ly innocently repeating gossip. 


Itching and Burning

Sores Disfigured So He Dreaded to 
Appear in Public, No Rest Night or

“Bix months ago my face and throat all 
broke.cut and turned into a running sore. 
I did not bother about it at first, but in 
one week's time the disease had spread so 
rapidly over my face and throat and the 
burning itching sores became so painful that 
I began to seek relief in different medicines, 
but none seemed to give me any relief. The 
sores disfigured my face to such an extent 
that I dreaded to appear in public, 

“I suffered terribly and could get no rest 
night or day. At last a friend advised me 
to try the Cuticura Remedies, I had about 
given ap hope, but thought. I would have 
“one more try, and so I used a little Cuticura 
Ointment, and it helped me from the start. 
I continued using it and in six weeks' time 
was completely cured, and can say I would 
advise anyone suffering from skin disease 
‘to uso Cuticura Ointment, as it is the best 
healing balm in the world,” (Signed) Roscoe

“I suppose you mean to have some 
of this money?” he asked, ; 

“That is it, sir, You have hit the 
right nail on the head exactly, If you 
like to uso the expression I am going 
to blackmail Copley. I am not afraid 
of the blackguard here. There is no 
chance of his trying any of his murd-

vantage to me to find out where te 
ley is getting his money. That he is 
earning it honestly I don’t believe. He 
couldn't do it if he wanted to. He is 
the sort of blackguard that would 
sooner make five pounds dishonestly 
than a tenner by legitimate business.” 

“I suppose you never found those 
plans?” Fielden asked. 

Philips swore heartily: 

“Never, sir,” he said. They were 
in my porimanteau, as you know. I 
had the portmanteau in my possession 
when those blackguards attacked me, 
and they had to levant without it, so 
closely were they pressed. But when 
I was well again I asked for my bag- 
gage and no one could tell me what 
had become of it. It vanished in a 
most mysterious manner. If you ask 
me, the portmanteau was stolen by 
one of those thievish Kaffir boys. It 
makes me wild when L think of it. 
Probably it is concealed in a Kaffir 
hut. In the old portmanteau it a 
scrap of paper which is worth bund- 
reds of thousands to us. I say us, be- 
cause if is yours just as much as it is 
mine. 
Mr. Fielden, but you played the game 
and weré always a white man. And 
if those papers ever do come to hand 


I shall do the fair thing by you.  It| 


doesn’t foilow because I happen to be 
the son of a sporting publican that I 
don’t know the difference between 
right and wrong. But what’s the good 

worrying about that? We shall 
never see those papers again, and as 
far as we are concerned that diamond 
mine might never have existed. But 
what are you doing here?” 

“T used to live close by,” Fielden ex- 
plained. “Most of this was once my 
property. You see Sir George Hare- 
dale’s trainer employs an old servant 
of mine and I came out this morning 
to see that trial. I might ask you the 
the same question.” 

Phillips blue eyes twinkled. 

“Bit of a disappointment, wasn’t it?” 
he asked. ‘ 

“What do you know about it?” Field- 
en demanded, 

“Oh, well, sir, wo are not partners 
in this job, at any rate. And if you 
like to keep your counsel, I am per- 
fecily willing to keep mine, Old Raf- 
fle is as straight as they make ‘em, but 
he is a downy old fox all the same, 
and pretty neatly he drew the feather 
over Copley’s eye this morning. Oh, 
yes, I heard all those blackguards had 
to say: in fact, I] followed them here. 
I am eglad I came. because I heard 


someiirnrg that confirmed my Susplc: | 


ions.” 

“You 
ments?” 

“That's it, sir. I wanted to know 
where Copley is getting his money. I 
know he isn’t vaying his tradesmen. 
but that doesn’t matter. for a man 
with a reputation for wealth can get 
as much credit as he likes. But Cop- 
ley is flying at high game and must 
have the command of a good deal of 
ready cash Now where does it come 
from? What sort of a swindle is on? 
Why are they so anxious to watch the 
trial of the Blenheim colt thie morn- 
ing? And, by the way Mr. Fielden, 
vou must give old Rafflo a hint to 
keen his eve on the stable lads. Some- 
hody has been betravinge confidence 
Tt doesn't much matter, because Con- 
ley was fooled this morning as easy 
as if he hed heen a schoolboy. — But 
Tam getting a bit away from the point 
I was going to tell you where Conlev 
got his money. Well. it’s a bettine 
swindle, and one of the biggest and 
most ingenius that has been atiempt- 
ed on ihe turf for many a long day. 1 
inst heard enough te put me on the 
irack. But I've my work cut out be- 
fore I reach the bottor of it) You 
have no occasion to love Copley rk 

“Indeed I haven't,” Fielden said bit- 
terly. “I have every reason for dis- 
liking the man, every reason “or ..- 
posing him before Miss—well before 
things have gone too far. And if ! 
cap help you I will do so cheerfully.” 

“That's right,” Phillips said a 
provingly. “Now, where can I see yo. 
for half an hour in the course of the 
afternoon? We mustn't stay talking 
here. There is old Raffle coming?” 

Fielden thought it over for a mou 
ment or two. He was glad enough 
meet this old South African comrad: 
of his again. In a good many ways 
Phillips was anything but a desirable 
acquaintance. His upbringing bad 
been none too strict, but, at the same 
time, he had a rough code of honor. 
and it was one of his proudest boasts 
that he never forgot a friend or a fa- 
vor. Probably he had had his own 
reasons for leaving Hneland suddenly. 
and no doubt those reasons had some- 
thing to do with the turf. At any rate 
he had a profound and intricate know- 
ledge of racing matters, and there 
was no swindle or trick with which 
he was not familiar. 

“You had better meet me at Heron's 
Dvke.” Fielden said, You can be out- 
side in the road about a quarter te 
five. There is nobody on the prent- 
ises, J have the key in my pocket 
and I daresay | shall manage to get 
a light from somewhere.” 

Phillips agreed and _ disapneared 
amongst the high gorse. As Ficlden 
stepped into the onen air he saw Raf- 
fle looking about for him, There war 
a shrewd smile on the old man's face 
and he did not appear in the least dir 
concerted over the result of the trial 

“Well,” Fielden asked. “What 
about your Derby winner now?” 

Raffle’s eye contracted in a wink. 

“Oh, it’s all right sir,” he said. "The 
trial was a great success. Did you 
happen to see anybody in the gorse, 
sir?” he said 

“Yes,” Fielden replied. 
Copley,” 

“and a friend,” Raffle chuckled. “I 
know all about it, And between you 
and me, I got this up for the benefit 
of Mr. Copley, who is about the great-

Library for the Blind 


Last spring a brief article on the 
Canadian Free Library for the Blind 
appeared in these columns. In that 
article it was stated that the library, 
then at Markham, Ont., was to be re- 
moved to Toronto. The removal has 
since taken place, and the GC, F, L. B, 
now occupies quarters at 105 Annette 
St., Toronto, Ont, 

The Canadian Free Library for the 
Blind is attempting to reach and ben- 
efit all the blind of Canada, but it {s 
encountering serious obstacles in the 
realization of this hope from the dif- 
ficulty in securing names and addres. 
Ses of those without sight, from the 
necessity of canvassing for funds to 
defray the expenses of maintenance. 
The Board of Management therefore 
requests all readers of this journal 
who are acquainted with blind per- 
sons not now enjoying the benefits 
of the library, to send in such names 
jand addresses to the Secretary, S. C. 
| Swift, 8 Washington Ave., Toronto, 
| Ont. It also makes a direct appeal to 
the generous Canadian public to con- 
tribute some small portion of the 
wealth with which it has been blessed 
jduring the past year. All contribu- 
}tions should be sent to the treasurer, 
Kh. W. Hermon, Esq., 37 Balmute St.,

It is the desire of the C. F. L. B. 
to establish a printing department for 
the purpose of printing Canadian 
texts in embossed type for the use 
of the Canadian Blind. There is at

Forests of the Philippines 

After several years’ investigation 
of the forests of the Philippine islands 
Dr: H. N. Whitford is enabied to make 
some statements concerning their ex- 
| tent and richness which will be likely 
L) £0 SU rnriga 2m agape sroaslenen The wey es 
for instance, that the virgin forest 
| area of the islands, covering 25,000,- 
000 acres, contains  200,000,000,000 
board feet of lumber, and he contrasts 
this with the 400,000,000,000 feet of 
timber growing on the 200,000,000 
acres contained in the forest reserves 
of the United States. In other words 
the Philippine forests are, acre for 
acre, four times as rich as those otf 
this country. Other authorities agree 
with Dr. Whitford in the opinion that 
when the world’s eyes are op ne! to 
the value of the tropical fores:s a

Dickens and Marshalsea Prison 

\ very interesting relic of one of 
; the London prisons demolished in the 
course of the Victorian era is about 
to figure in an auction room in the 
west end. This is the actual iron and 
oak grill from the old Marshalsea 
prison in Southwark, behind which, 
it is said the father of Charles Dick- 
ens was confined for debt. Readers 


not need to be reminded of the fact 


ior of the famous prison and the life 


Like more than one other in the Lon- 
don area, the prison was finally razed 
to the ground in 1899, It was used 


almost entirely for persons comumit- 
ted for debt and contempt of court 
and for admiralty prisoners. 


Quick Measuremevts 

A traveller was d3tair+] at a 
country railway station for ‘alf in 
hour and was chatting with the sta- 
tionmaster, when the bell rang sharply 
half a dozen time. Instantly the three 
employees—stationmaster, booking 
clerk and porter—ranged up in a line 
on the platform and stood at attention. 

A moment later a locomotive with 
a single saloon-carriage slowed up. 
| The solitary occupant of the saloon 
regarded the men sharply, made hur- 
ried notes and quickly retired. 

“Who was that?” the traveller asked 
the stationmaster after the train had 
gone. “Some prominent official of 
the line,” 

“Oh no,” was the reply. “That was 
the company’s tailor measuring us for 
new suits,”

The Berkshire was introduced tnto 
America tn 1823, and since that year 
he has been greatly improved until 
we now have an animal of fixed 
type and unusual prepotency, says 
the Country Gentleman, Some un- 
certainty seems to exist in the minds 
of a few as to whether the Berk- 
shire should be classed among the 
large or the small breeds. He 
should be classed as above medium 
However, this matter of

keeping the digestive system in good 
order. Others bave the opposite ef- 
fect. 

Among the various feedstuffs which 
are not conducive to the best health 
of the animals may be mentioned corn. 
Still, corn is used in many instances as 
the sole grain ration for swine. A va- 
riety of fecds te clurmgd te bo secy

roots, forage crops, shorts, skimmilk 
and such other feeds are all supposed 
to have a favorable influence upon the 
digestive system, thus are beneficial tn

Another important point from a | 
health standpoint is exercise. Where 
swine are confined {n small, damp, 


filthy yards it is next to impossible to 
prevent disease. The surroundings are 
Just right, and if disease should come 
in the neighborhood {t makes an ex- 
cellent place for it to start. 

Another important point which will 
be found to be very helpful in case 
disease should break out in the herd 
is that of having the hogs scattered 
over the farm. By so doing disease 
may break out in one place and the re 
mainder of the hogs on the farm not 
be affected at all. On the other band, 
if they are bunched up tp small yards 
and disease should break out, in many 
instances the entire flock will be af- 
fected before it Is noticed. Ip such an 
instance the only thing to do ts to sep- 
arate the hogs as soon as disease is 
observed, disinfect all thoroughly and 
transfer them to other yards

COINS OF ALUMINIUM. 


Advantages of the White Metal Over 
Bronze Coinage. 
Aluminium ts a bluish white metal 
which is very malleable when pure, 
In bardness and tenacity it is com. 
parable with silver, Experiments in 
abrasion conducted at the French mint 
have proved that aluminium coins will 
be less rapidly worn by use than coins 
of gold, silver or even bronze, says the 
Scientific American, Alumiaium has a 
metattite ring and is unaffected by ex- 
posure to the air at any ordinary tem- 
perature, Its extreme lightness is an- 
other advantage. It is only 2.56 times 
heavier than water and is four times 
lighter than silver; bence aluminium 
coins could be carried in considerable 
quantities without inconvenience, and 
they would be easily distinguished 
from silver coins by their lightness. 
The total nominal value of the bronze

| 000 francs (about $10,800,000), Accord-

| minium coins of the same denomina- 
| Hons, to the nominal! value of 63,000,- 
000 francs, this expansion being made 


| to meet the normal increase of demand | 


| during the ten years allowed to accom-

| coins are to have the same diameters 
{as the bronze coins, about one inch 
‘and one and one-quarter inches, but 
, they will weigh 
| grams (about thirty-one and forty-six 
| grains), while the bronze pieces weigh 
|five and ten grams (77 and 154 
grains), About 2,000 tons of alumini-

currency without counting the revenue 
derived from the sale of the 5,000 tons

Linseed For Boiler Scale. 

The matter of boiler scale is one 
which is a constant worry to every 
one who is responsible for the econom- 
ical operation of a boiler plant, and 
maby are the attempts which have 
been made to solve this problem. An 
exceedingly simple method has been 
discovered by a Russian engineer, 
which consists of adding a small quan- 
tity of linseed to the boiler water. 
The linseed is put in the epper part 
of a copper tank divided by a horizon- 
tal sieve of fine mesh and connected 
with the hot water supply. The re- 
sultant decoction filters through the 
close meshed double copper sieve to 
the lower part and is fed to the boiler 
through the injector. The slimy sub- 
stance of the solution attacks every 
particle of forming scale which does 
not adhere to the walls of the boilers 
and is readily ejected when the boiler 
is blown out. The necessary amount 
of linseed is stated to be about one-half 
pound for every 100 horsepower. ‘Tak- 
ing thirty pounds of steam as corre- 
sponding to one horsepower, the quan- 
Uly of linseed required would be about 
one-half pound for every 270 gallons 
of feed water. 


Simple Ventilating Device. 

A novel but simple device for venti- 
lating cars, factories and houses has 
just been devised by H. T. Minnitt. In 
a panel of glass or sheet metal a large 
humber of bosses are stamped, each 
boss being perforated by a hole about 
a quarter of an inch tn diameter, The 
panel is mounted in a wall or window, 
and if the bosses project outward the 
wind causes a distinct current of air 
outward through the holes, but if the 
panel is reversed the current passes in- 
(ward, The action 1s still the same,

WHY THE OCEAN IS SALT. 


Theory Advanced That Salinity Is Due 
to Volcanic Ejectments. 

Sea water contains about 38% per 
cent of sodium chioride and other salts, 
|The evaporation of ail the oceans 
would leave a mass of sait sufficient 
\to cover the entire globe to the depth 
of 200 feet and equal to the buik, above 
sea level, of North and South Amer. 
ica, or one-fourth that of the whole 
earth. 

The thecry that this enormous quan- 
| tity of salt has been dissolved teem 
| continental rocks and carried down to 
| the sea by streams is not tenable, be- 
‘cause the salts found in solution in 
| river water contain 80 per cent of car- 
‘bonate of lime and only 7 per cent of 
|chlorides, while common salt, or 80- 
dium chloride, constitutes 89 per cent 
lof the salts of sea water, Moreover, 
the evaporation of inland seas which | 
{has taken place in central Asia has 
lleft saline deposits very different in 
from the salts of the 


| ocean. 
It appears, therefore, that salinity 


Ky fol- | proposes to replace some 50,000,000 | must be regarded as an original prop- 


erty of the ocean, Suess has advanced 
| the theory that the salts now found in | 
| the sea have been ejected by volcanoes 
|in early stages of the earth's forma- 
tion. Even now every eruption tn- 
creases the quantity of water vapor, 
|earbonic acid and compounds of chlo- 
rine and sulphur in the atmosphere, 
land these substances ultimately find 
their way to the ocean. After every 
eruption of Vesuvius the crater is 
covered with a gleaming white layer 
of common salt, and the volcanoes of 
South America eject enormous quanti- 
ties of hydrochloric acid, estimated at 
thirty tons daily for the voleano of 
Purace, in Colombia, 

This volcanic activity, now restricted 
to a few points of the earth’s surface, 
must have been general in remote ages, 


before life appeared on the globe. The | 


gases confined within the thin solid 
erust burst their bounds and found 
their way to the surface, bringing with 
them the millions of tons of chlorides 
which we find today in the oceans. 
Yet the transfer of these millions of 
tons is a relatively insignificant change, 
for on a terrestrial globe of a diameter 
equal to the average height of man 
(sixty-six and one-half inches) one-six- 
teenth inch would represent the great 
est depth of the ocean, and the waters 
ofethe ocean contain only 31% per cent 
of solids.—Cosmos,

THE AMPHIBICYCLE. 


Machine That Runs With Facility on. 
Land and Water, 

A young inventor of Lyons, France, 
| has adapted a bicycle for use as a 
boat and as a road machine, To en- 
able the bicycle to run on water he 
attached to it a pair of cylindrical 
floats, a propeller and a rudder. On 
leaving the water the cylinders and 
nautical gear are lifted so as to allow 
the wheels to run on the ground. 

The inventor was able to run his ma- 
chine on the Saome, in the neighbor: 
hood of Lyons, and also on roads ap- 
parently with no difficulty. When in 
the water the machine is able to make 
five or six miles an hour quite easily. 

The two cylindrical floats, which end 
In a conical point, are attached to the 
bicycle frame by jointed supports so 
that they can be raised and lowered 
as desired and can be fastened in

Healthfulness of Smoke. 

Smoke is a blessing to the world and 
a boon to health, according to a state- 
ment by W. FP. Rond, coal magnate, in 
reply to an address by B. R. Pritchard, 
secretary of the Chicago board of 
health, declaring it a nuisance, 

“This talk about smoke being a 
curse is all nonsense,” Mr, Rond de- 
clares, “The Creator who made coal 
knew that there would be smoke and 
knew that smoke would be a good 
thing for the world, 

“Take the coal operator; who is at 
all times breathing not only smoke, 
but coal dust in addition. His lungs 
are black with both, and yet he is owe 
of the healthiest men in the world. In 
all my experience among coal opera- 
tors I know of only one who died of 
tuberculosis. 

“The carbon in the smoke is a boon 
to health, As the smoke ascends the 
carbon contained in it kills germs of 
every kind of dise#se and puriwes the 
air.”

Latest Theory About Cancer. 
A French surgeon named Borrel has 
, recently delivered a lecture at che

of which he advances a novel theory 
concerning cancer and leprosy. He 


| bacillus of either malady is concealed 
in the black pinbeaGs or blackheads 
| which often disfigure our faces and 
from which, particularly in the nose 
and chin, scarcely any one is entirely 
free. When extracted these pinheads 
or blackheads have the appearance of 
little worms. They consist of what is 
| known as sebaceous matter, this being 
| matter produced from certain glands 
| with the object of supplying the skin 
with its due quantity of oil, 

Dr. Borrel has been experimenting 
and has found, with the aid of a very 
| powerful microscope, that this seba- 


a bacillus which is cancerous or crab- 
like ip form, 

After the age of fifty most persons, 
|} male as well as female, throw off 
| much of this sebaceous matter in the 


| and chest in particular exude most se. 
baceous matter. It is about this age, 
declares Borrel, that cancerous devel. 
opments begin to make their appear- 
ance, and the coincidence is worth re- 
marking. 

Dr. Borrel advises those whose face 
and body are disfigured by blackheads 
to beware. A solution of alcohol with

EEEEEEELEE LEELA EEE EERE 
WINTER CARE OF SHEEP. 


Suggestions For Feeding and Care ef. 
Breeding Ewes. 

Breeding ewes may be kept tn first 
class condition through the winter by 
the use of roughages and concentrates 
such as may be grown on the average 
farm, says the Orange Judd Farmer, 
The mistake is often made of thinking 
that the ewes can be wintered on 
some roughage, as bay or straw, and 
atill keep tn proper condition. They 
should not be fat, but should carry 
more flesh than is usually supposed, 

Clover bay is an excellent roughage, 
as is also alfalfa, Corn fodder, oat 
straw, barley straw or roots, such as 
mangels, may be used, Corn silage 
has proved satisfactory and econom- 
ical when fed with bay or fodder, It 
furnishes a succulent feed that acts 
as a stimulant to the appetite and as 
a regulator of the bowels. Ewes that 
are fed a daily allowance of silage 
will more certainly keep in a thrifty 
condition, Roughage alone will not be 
sufficient, as some concentrate or con- 
centrates should bé fed. With a lib 
eral supply of roughages not more 
than half a pound of concentrates, 
such as oats, should be required. Less 
than this amount will often be suffi- 
cient Bran or cowpeas may be Ted

pastures are level rather than hilly, 
where grass is abundant and where

extremes. They mature early, con- 
sidering their great size; dress well 
and are especially valuable in cross-

of fleece are desired. 


with good results. Corn may be fed, 
but since it is quite fattening the 
amount should be very small. Care 
should be taken that too much of the 
protein rich feeds, such as clover, al- 
falfa or bran, is not fed, They tend 
to produce lambs that are too large at 
birth or that have more bone develop- 
ment than is desired. 

In addition to receiving a proper ra- 
tion dry quarters are necessary if the 
ewes are to go through the winter as 
they should, Too warm quarters may 
be possible. Ordinarily one thickness 
of well matched inch boards ts all 
that is needed on a sheep burn,, The 
cracks should be battened, however, as 
drafts are very undesirable. Proper 
ventilation and sunlight should be 
kept in mind, The sheep should have

THE ACCELEROMETER. 


An Instrument That Measures Power 
and Road Resistance. 


In a paper on the use of an ne. | 


celerometer in the measurement of 
road resistance and horsepower, read 
ata recent meeting of the engineering 
section of the British association, H. 
BE. Wimperis described the form of ac- 
celerometer recently invented by him 

The instrument consisted of a brass 
bex about four inches across, contain. 
ing a copper disk mounted on a ver- 
tical pivot and “damped” in its mo- 
tions by a permanent magnet, The 
center of gyration of the disk was pur- 
posely removed from the axis, so that 
when the box moved forward one side 
of the disk tended to lag behind, thus 
Partially winding up a coiled spring 
and actuating a pointer, which moved 
over a scale. To prevent the reading 
from being affected by any accelera- 
tions at right angles to the direction of 
motion, & second parallel axis was fit- 
ted, which was geared to the first one 


the same mass movement as the disk 
itself. Couples about these two axes 
added up in the direction of motion, 
but neutralized one another in any dl- 
rection at right angles. The accelerom- 
| eter, therefore, read in 
three directions of space only and was 
not affected by even violent 
ments in the other two directions, 
With this instrument the author had 
measured the road resistance of va- 


rious classes of road and had obtained 
| figures varying from 50 pounds to 210 
pounds per ton. On main line railways 
the resistance was usually from twelve 
pounds to thirty pounds per ton, de- 
pending on the speed. Measurements 
had also been made of the resistance to 
| motion when a motorcar was coasting, 
In this way the horsepower and the 
engine friction could be measured and 
| a figure for the mechanical efficiency 
| could be obtained. By the use of the 
accelerometer road resistances could 


be read off at sight, the air resistance | 


of various shapes of car body could 


be determined, the boiler horsepower | 


and indicated horsepower of the engine 
could be obtained for various speeds, 
while it was possible to trace step by 
step the losses of power in transmis- 
sion to the road wheels. 

MINE RESCUE DEVICE. 
Apparatus Permits Men to Work For

Experiments at the Lancashire and

apparatus with which it is said that 
the men so equipped can work for five 
or six hours in the most deadly gases 
without the slightest inconvenience or

| Beauty Recipes of French Chemist. 
The following vecipes are formulas 
| used by a noted French chemist: 

The woman who lives at home and 


| has the necessary leisure may enjoy 


heating her little “bain marie” and be 
coming her own chemist. The busier 
woman can give the prescriptions to a 
reliable druggist, who will put them up 
for her. The orange flower skin food is 
| specially recommended. The hair rect 
pes will fail of their full effet if the 
skin (or scalp) to which they are ap- 
plied be not thoroughly cleansed first. 
The scalp lotions are useless, more 
| over, if the scalp be tight. In nine 
cases out of ten both skin and scalp 
are somewhat neglected in the sum- 
mer. Now is the time to resume the 
steady care of one’s tresses. And as 
| the soil is the thing to mind about ia 
gardening, so the scalp is the thing to 
mind about when it is a question of 
the hair. The beauty of the hair de 
pends upon the nourishment it receives, 
and the nourishment it receives de 
pends upon the circulation.

Perfumed Baths, 

The most notable feature of the fash- 
jon today is the remarkable extent to 
which perfume is being used in baths. 
Another modern fashion ts the burning 
of perfumes in rooms. Perfumes ha ve, 
of course, been burned ip this way for 
ages, but of late there bas beep a re 
markable revival of the custom, and

It appears that Tlenry H. when pre 
paring for the marriage of his sister 
in 1559, first gave the idea for silk 
stockings and was the first to wear 
silk knitted stockings at that epoch- 
making event. A hundred years later 
one Hindres established a factory for 
stockings in the Bois de Boulogne. + 

This was the first factory in France. 
It was a success at the start and when 
it received protection from the then 
ministers it was a kind of gold mine: 
In 1666 the venture was turned into 
a company. From it arose the Society 
of Stocking Makers. _ At this time 
ribbed sockings were made in England 
but it was not until nearly a century 
later that such wear was introduced 
into France, The idea, to use a vul- 
garism, “caught on” and * factories 
were established in Paris and Lyons. |
